Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 24: Chapter 24 Total Victory

Xu Ke’s lips curled slightly, he took the first step and swung his leg towards the temple of the man on the left, instantly incapacitating him. At the same time, the man on the right reached Xu Ke’s foot, but Xu Ke stomped and crushed his kneecap.

In just a split second, three of their main fighters were lost. The thugs halted their charge, glanced at each other, and saw the seriousness in each other’s eyes.

It seemed today they had encountered a tough opponent.

"What are you all standing there for? Get him! I’ll add another 500,000 if you break one of his legs," Lu Chi shouted loudly from the back of the crowd.

Since ancient times, wealth has tempted people. The thugs, who had been thinking of retreating, all charged forward upon hearing Lu Chi’s words.

One-on-one, they were no match for Xu Ke. This group thought surely they could take down a pretty boy, as they charged forward thinking.

Lu Chi watched Xu Ke surrounded, as red veins slowly filled his eyes, showing excitement. He stood at the mouth of the alley, waving his heavily bandaged hand like a madman, shouting continuously, "Hit him, hit him, kill him."

Encircled, Xu Ke indeed felt uncomfortable. Long without martial arts training, his moves seemed rusty. At this moment, unable to dodge in time, his body started to accumulate wounds, which seemed to be increasing, yet he seemed completely immune to pain, attacking his opponents desperately.

No one in front of Xu Ke could escape his assaults; at this time, he seemed like a war maniac, or a pain-insensitive machine.

With each attack, Xu Ke gradually awakened his memories of school training, moving no longer awkwardly and stiffly like before. Quickly, the thugs noticed Xu Ke’s attack speed increasing, rendering their numerical advantage useless.

Just when everyone thought this would be a battle of attrition, one of the encircling thugs got distracted and showed a flaw, which Xu Ke, who had been looking for an opportunity, immediately noticed.

Xu Ke lightly raised one eyebrow, a move that made him suddenly exude wickedness, hitting the thug’s flaw with a fierce punch. The thug, snapping out of his distraction, tried to defend but saw Xu Ke’s lips curling slightly, feeling doomed, he wanted to retreat but it was too late; Xu Ke’s leg fiercely swung at his head, flipping him over. Once there’s a gap in a circle, it quickly breaks down.

Those thinking Xu Ke didn’t have much strength left couldn’t believe their eyes as they witnessed his terror once more.

"Still daring to be distracted while fighting me, really overestimating yourself," Xu Ke said lightly. Then he quickly moved to the next person, attacking before the person could react. The remaining ones saw Xu Ke fighting ever more fiercely and felt fear in their hearts. With little effort, Xu Ke knocked them all to the ground. The once spacious alley now felt cramped with bodies lying around.

Xu Ke stretched his muscles, shifting his gaze from the thugs to Lu Chi, looking at him with a half-smile. Lu Chi stared at the thugs blankly, and after realizing the scene, he swore furiously, "You bragged about being so tough, yet can’t even beat a pretty boy. What use are you? Trash, all trash, I’ll report you!" Lu Chi shrieked, his voice sharp and grating.

"Huh!" Xu Ke’s light laugh sounded like thunder, pulling Lu Chi back to reality from his frenzy.

Watching Xu Ke getting closer, glancing at the thugs lying around, Lu Chi finally realized his situation. He wanted to escape the alley and shout for help, but his legs trembled uncontrollably, leaving him helpless. "Don’t come any closer, do you hear me? I said don’t come any closer!" Lu Chi shouted, struggling to control his shaking body, pointing at Xu Ke with his bandaged hand, yelling loudly. noveldrama

But the alley they chose was too remote, with hardly anyone passing by, so even with Lu Chi shouting so loud, no one could hear. Only Xu Ke’s footsteps echoed in the alley.

Step! Step! Step! Each step seemed to tread upon Lu Chi’s nerves, making him uncontrollably tremble.

"I remember telling you not to appear before me again, looks like the last lesson wasn’t enough, how quickly you forgot my warning." Xu Ke brushed his hair back, revealing a smooth forehead and eyes sharp as a blade.

"Where should I break this time?" Xu Ke’s eyes swept over Lu Chi, looking at him not like a person, but like livestock ready for slaughter.

Faced with Xu Ke’s gaze, Lu Chi trembled more violently, face turning pale. He felt as if Xu Ke’s gaze had scraped over him like a blade, making him want to scream from the pain, but pride clenched his teeth, swallowing all the sounds.

"What do you plan to do to me? I’m the young master of the Lu Family, hurt even one finger, and I guarantee my family won’t let you go," Lu Chi shrieked.

"Tsk, seems your parents haven’t told you yet, the Lu Family’s on the brink of bankruptcy, you won’t be the young master much longer."

"You’re lying, how can our family go bankrupt!" Lu Chi had been staying in the hospital recuperating all this time; his parents didn’t inform him, fearing he’d worry. Focused solely on revenging Xu Ke, he overlooked outside news and remained ignorant of the impending bankruptcy.

"Why would I lie to you, if you don’t believe, ask your parents yourself, see if I’m telling the truth. Now, let’s settle our matter." Xu Ke easily snatched the phone from Lu Chi, smiling.

Recalling the expression in memory matching Xu Ke’s current face perfectly, Lu Chi’s pupils slowly widened. The next moment, a deafening roar echoed through the alley, startling resting birds into flight.

Soon after, Xu Ke walked out of the alley, slightly disheveled hair brushed all back, adding a wild touch to his masculine aura, attracting a few extra stares from passersby.

And, in the alley behind him, Lu Chi lay on the ground with limbs twitching irregularly, looking like a fish near death by dehydration, tears and sweat smeared his face, making him appear terribly miserable.

He squinted with pupils slightly out of focus, muttering with a gaping mouth, "Spare me... Please... I won’t do it again... I was wrong."

It was unknown how much time had passed before Lu Chi’s eyes finally closed completely, whereas Xu Ke, the one responsible, was already back at the Lin Family, preparing dinner.
